FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY, OR EVEN DEATH. Check with local building officials for any permits required for installation of this pellet heater and notify your insurance company before proceeding with installation. Packing List • Newport Stove • Owner's Manual • Door Latch Tool • Fuses (2) • Lag Bolts (2) Installation Options: • Residential or Mobile Home (see the section "Mobile Home Requirements") • Alcove Compatible (see the section "Alcove Installation") • Horizontal or Vertical Vent • Outside Air Compatible • Vent with L-Vent, L-Vent Fireplace Liner, or Type A Chimney (with adapter) Planning The Installation HINT: Have an authorized Travis Industries dealer install this heater. If you install the heater yourself, have your dealer review your installation plans. HINT: Sketch out a detailed plan of the installation including dimensions. Then verify the dimensions with the requirements listed in this manual. HINT: When determining the location of the stove, locate the wall studs (for horizontal penetrations) and ceiling trusses (for vertical penetrations). You may wish to adjust the stove position slightly to ensure the vent does not intersect with a framing member. HINT: Place the heater outside and load 10 pounds of pellets inside the hopper. Plug the heater in and let it run on HIGH until the pellets run out. This will cure the paint and burn off any oil on the steel, eliminating any smell inside the home. Stove Placement • Stove must be placed so that no combustibles are within, or can swing within (e.g. drapes, doors), 36" of the front of the heater. ? If the stove is placed in a location where the ceiling height is less than 7', it must follow the requirements in the section "Alcove Installation Requirements". HINT: REDUCING CLEARANCES - Clearances may be reduced by methods specified in NFPA 211, listed wall shields, pipe shields, or other means approved by local building or fire officials. • Heater and floor protection must be installed on a level, secure floor. Floor Protection Requirements • The heater must be installed on a non-combustible floor protector extending the full width and depth of the heater and extending 6" in front (Minimum 21-5/8" wide by 26-7/8" deep) (minimum .018" thick - 26 gauge) . • Must extend under and 2" to each side and rear of a chimney "Tee" (if used).

Because of the reduced height, the installation requirements listed below must be met. • Minimum height is 60" • Minimum width is 42" • Maximum depth is 48" • Minimum clearance of 9" on each side and 3" on back Setting the Restrictor The restrictor "fine tunes" your appliance, ensuring it pulls the correct amount of air through the firebox. Altitude, vent configuration, and other factors make restrictor adjustment necessary for every installation. NOTE : the optimal restrictor position will vary over time as soot builds up inside the exhaust system – make sure the homeowner knows how to visually inspect the flame and adjust the restrictor. Not Enough Air: If clinkers develop or the flame appears lazy and slow to blow the ash out of the firepot, pull the restrictor outward until the flame becomes active and the firepot holes remain clean. NOTE: If the restrictor is fully out yet the firepot does not remain clean, the stove needs to be cleaned and checked for air leaks (see "Maintenance" section of this manual). Too Much Air: If the flames are too active (small, flickering flames) or if burning pellets are expelled from the firepot, move the restrictor rod inwards until the flame slows down and no burning pellets are expelled. Another symptom of too much air is the heater "blowing the fire out" – a condition in which the pellets burn faster than they are fed (this is most common on low).

AAAAAAA AAAAAAA AAAAAAA AAAAAAA AA AA AA AAAAAAA AAAAAAA NOTE: When replacing the ashpan make sure it is pushed all the way in. Disposal of Ashes – Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight fitting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground, well away from all combustible materials, pending final disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all cinders have been thoroughly cooled. Clean the Glass Open the door and clean the glass with a non-abrasive glass cleaner and rag. This will increase the amount of light and heat given off by the heater. Travis Industries Newport 290902 28 Maintenance Yearly Maintenance (or every two tons) WARNING: Disconnect the power cord prior to conducting service. The following section details extensive maintenance procedures. We strongly suggest these items be carried out by a trained service technician, possibly by a service agreement set up with your dealer. Soot and Flyash: Formation and Need for Removal – The products of combustion will contain small particles of flyash. The flyash will collect in the exhaust venting system and restrict the flow of the flue gases. Incomplete combustion, such as occurs during startup, shutdown, or incorrect operation of the room heater will lead to some soot formation which will collect in the exhaust venting system. The exhaust venting system should be inspected at least once every year to determine if cleaning is necessary. Clean the Vertical Exhaust Duct (the stove must be cool and unplugged) Remove both refractory side clips. Clean this area behind where the refractory rests (both sides). Remove the refractory. Remove these doors to remove fallen flyash and soot (see "Bi-Weekly Maintenance for details") Clean the Horizontal Exhaust Duct (the stove must be cool and unplugged) a Open the hopper lid and remove the two screws holding the side doors in place. Phillips Screwdriver b Swing the side panels open. Remove the cover d Use a vacuum or bottle brush to remove all flyash from the exhaust duct. c Cover Plate plates over the exhaust duct (both sides) r e v i r d t u N " 6 1 / 5 AA AA Travis Industries Newport 290902 Maintenance 29 Yearly Maintenance (or every two tons) - Continued Clean the Exhaust Blower (make sure the stove is cool and unplugged) a Open the hopper lid and remove the screw hlding the left door in place.

AA Flyash will deposit along AA Check the vent sections for creosote accumulation (indicating a poorly burning AA stove). Accumulation over 1/4" must be removed. AA On vertically vented systems, the dirtiest portion is often the point where the vent turns upwards (i.e. the "Tee"). Fortunately, the "Tee" has a built-in clean out cover. Remove the cover and vacuum out. While open, use a flashlight to look up the pellet vent to check for build-up. Warning: Whenever any portion of the pellet vent is disconnected, the joints must be sealed with RTV 500° F. silicone sealant. Travis Industries Newport 290902 30 Maintenance Yearly Maintenance (or every two tons) - Continued Check for Air Leaks Around the Door, Glass, and Ashpan ! Air leaks into the firebox will decrease the stove's performance greatly, leading to excessive sooting, inefficient burning, and perhaps a malfunction. • Test the door seal by shutting the door on a dollar bill in various locations. If the bill can be easily slid out, air may be leaking around the door seal – inspect the door gasket and door catch carefully. • Inspect the door gasket to make sure it is fully attached. Use stove gasket cement to re-attach if necessary. If the door gasket is worn or flattened, replace. • Check the door to make sure it latches correctly. Slight adjustments can be made to the door catch if necessary (do not over-tighten this catch, an over-tightened catch will damage the door). The latch should engage with a slight amount of resistance, yet not be difficult to engage. • If the glass is cracked, replace. The glass is held in place by glass clips that are underneath the airwash brackets. See the illustration below for details. • Remove the ashpan and inspect the gasket around the perimeter of the ashpan. Re-attach, or replace the gasket if necessary.
